+# Revise.jl
+There is a julia-package `Revise.jl` that everyone should install. To do so open a julia REPL (=command line) and execute the following lines:
+```julia
+using Pkg
+Pkg.add("Revise")
+```
+
+and that's it. Revise automatically screens the active packages and updates the function if it detects code changes. Similar to `autoreload 2` in ipython.
